Review Articles
Submission of reviews and perspective covering topics of current interest are welcome and encouraged. Mini-reviews should be concise and no longer than 3 – 4 printed pages (about 8 – 12 manuscript pages) and full-length reviews should be concise and no longer than 6 – 8 printed pages (about 12 – 16 manuscript pages). A review should be topical, sufficiently critical and comprehensive with regards to citations to the literature. It should draw attention to outstanding problems and take care to accommodate different points of view. The format requirements for original research articles apply to reviews too.
Short Communication
A short communication is suitable for recording the results of complete small investigations or giving details of new model or hypothesis, innovative methods, techniques or apparatus. The style of main sections need not conform to that of full length of papers. However, mentioning subtitles like Introduction, Methodology, etc. should be avoided. Short communications are 3 to 4 print pages (about 6 to 10 manuscript pages) in length.
